In the spring-flowering category, a whole series made the running in 2023. The Primula polyantha hybrid POLLYANNA with the varieties "Flame", "Frosty White" and "Sunny Yellow" from Kientzler Jungpflanzen in Gensingen. The series stands out as the first double flowering stem primroses from meristem culture. This means that they are true to variety and also really always double. Full and numerous flower stems guarantee a long flowering period. The flowering period starts as early as mid-February and lasts until May. Their habit looks like a bouquet and should be just the right choice for the premium segment and as a gift.

Stefan de Hoog, Anthura In the category "Flowering Houseplant", the award "IPM Novelty 2023" goes to Anthurium andreanum ANTHFYSAN "Delicata" by Anthura from the Netherlands.

A field maple is the winner in the category "Woody Plants". The Acer campestre "Street Pillar" from Concept Plants B.V. in the Netherlands convinced the expert committee and was awarded the title "IPM Novelty 2023". In times of climate change, the field maple is one of the most interesting trees of the future. Above all, it is one of the few Central European climate heroes. The young foliage of the "Street Pillar" is bright green and changes to a deep, dark colour in summer. The columnar growth is recommended for narrow streets, but also for home gardens as a house tree with a climatic character.

In the cut flower category, the Chamelaucium "Ever Flowering Wax" won the race. The name says it all about this Australian wax flower from Nir nursery in Israel. Wax flowers have long been a popular choice for florists. The "Ever Flowering Wax" impresses with its almost year-round harvest time. This increases the cultivation value of this drought-tolerant variety, breaks harvest peaks and enables a continuous supply to the trade and thus to the consumer.
